    * "...[Doughty's] poem works just as well to describe a parent's love of his or her child as it does to express romantic affection." 

    —Publishers Weekly, STARRED review 

     

    "...[Before You's] bounty of metaphors and clever depictions of them make it a boon for classroom use." 

    —Kirkus
